Crops.—The corn crop has come fully
up to the expectations of most planters,
and the quantity harvested is immense.
The sweet potato crop is generally
very good, hut we think sufficient care
was not generally taken in selecting the
seed for planting.
The chestnut crop is ‘ bully.”

Our people may depend upon hearing a
most excellent speech, and we trust the

Literary Society.
Capt. Pitts, one of our most enter

of the man is a sufficient guaranty that
the Society will not lack for a competent
head. Mr. John M Kiker was elected
Secretary.
Iho Society determined to meet on
every Friday night.
l)r. Thornton and Capt. E. J. Kiker
were appointed speakers for the next

Soliloquy of a Disappointed
* Cotton Planter;
Editors Telegraph <£* messenger / Oh !
for a pen of fire to write my views of the
cotton business. It would take three
cjuireb of foolscap paper to express my
intense disgust for cotton, and every
body that plants it, to the exclusion of
something to eat. I started out this
year with brilliant hopes. Indeed I
was so enthused with c.itton that I for
got everything. I gave up my practice
ot law > and turned my head to calcula
ting how much I should make. I had
bought provisions on time—had bought
tons of guano, and decided that I should
certainly make 2.250 pounds of lint cot
ton to the acre, and that I should seH it
at twenty cents, and have enough to pay
all my drafts, and have money to invest.
Began to worry about the safety of pro
posed investments. Thought Central
Railroad stock would he unsafe because
of the Brunswick road, and the Macon
and Augusta Road, and feared that the
new' road to Atlanta might damage it.
Had no idea that I. could ewer gin my
cotton iu the old gin-house, with the
old horse power, and, therefore, sent up
to Findlay and got one of Bottom ’>•
Horse Powers. Found my old gin-house
too low—got carpenters and workmen,
and prized and prized and worried the
poor old house, until we got Bottoms on
r to» Thon T bought anew gin; for I
expected, with the iourienFe yiehl,fhat> it
would require a gin with all the improve
ments, and [ bought anew cotton press
to facilitate packing. Oh ! how I glo
ried in the prospect as I saw the cotton
grow. I lauded the guano, and wonder
ed how one ever did without it.
Alas 1 how changed is my condition !
How blighted my hopes ! Instead of 2.-
350 pounds at 20 I shall make probably
600 to the acre at 10 cents per pound.
And then how can 1 see the factor in
Savannah. I had rather “face a frown
ing world than to see him.”
lam in despair almost. Went home
a day or two ago, went up stairs and
found the room full of empty guano
sacks. I said, in desperation, I know
what I’ll do; I’ll dig a grave and I’ll
bury the sacks out of my sight, and,
standing on the grave, my cry shall be
vengeance on cotton and guano.

Disturbance in Clinton. —Several
gentlemen from Jones county, in this
city yesterday, give us the particulars
of a public disturbance and riot between
four white men and about one hundred
negroes,* that occurred about dark in
Clinton on Friday evening. It appears
that the white men had been drinking
and one of them becoming angry and
exasperated at a negro, went home and
got his double barrel gun. and return
ing *o where a crowd of negroes were
gathered fired into them, wounding one
severely and another slightly. Os
course, this greatly aroused the indigna
tion and hostility of the negroes and
they began to arm themselves rapidly
and but for the hasty flight of the man
who fired the first shot they would have
mobbed him on the spot. He was de
fended by three of his companions who
had been with him daring the evening
and they, too, got themselves into the
muss. After arming, the negroes com
menced searching for the man who first
fired on them, and failing to find him,
they burned one of his houses a half
mile out from Clinton, used as a sort of
a barn or cotton house* believing that
he was concealed therein. The white
citizens of Clinton took no part in the
disturbance, and frowned down and dc
luuneed the lawless action of the parties
who brought on the fuss
During the night the negroes fired
more than a hundred shots, and were
ransacking the county in the neighbor
hood of Clinton in search of the princi
pal originator of the trouble”, and they
were still marching about in armed
squads yesterday morning. It is not
believed, however, that anything further
of a serious nature will grow' out of the
matter. — Maeou T b graph.

The English Press on General
Lee.—A London dispatch of the 15th.
instant says: “Tlie English journals
are teeming with eulogistic obituary
notices of General Lee. In the Times
this morning Colonel From on te , of the
Guards, goes so far as to say the only
blot on the reputation of the great com
mander was the escape from annihilation
of the northern army after the battle of
Fredericksburg, which is to be attribut
ed to the fact that his sense of humanity
overpowered the stern duties of the
general.
What means E. F. B ?
Is it really the ease that Mr. Aker
wan, of Georgia, is to be expelled from
the Attorney Generalship, as having
eaten his allotted dirt in postponing the
Congressional election in that Shite

Congress will be in session, and be able,
without the fear of the fall elections be
fore it, to forbid that election until
1872." And is Senator Williams, the
father of the Reconstruction Acts,
whom Oregon has just spewed out, to
have his place ? World.

This is the way they treat the poor in

We extract from the Atchison Kansas
Patriot:
A negro named West Hawkins at
tempted a few days ago a horrible crime
upon the person of an aged white wo
man living a few mile, north of Mar
shall, in Saline county, Mo. He was
arrested, tried, and committed to jail.
“Toward evening,” says the Saline
County Republican, “ men w r ith guns
and pistols in their hands began to
erow'd around the jail doors and demand
the keys. Sheriff Wall and his deputies
were sent for, but refused to deliver the
keys. The sheriff tried to disperse the
mob but in vain. They again demanded
the keys, and the sheriff refused. The
mob then began to break open the
doors with sledge hammers, and the
sheriff, driven to the necessity of choos
ing between two evils, gave up the
keys in order to save the other prison
ers. The mob entered, seized the negro;
a rope around him and led him down in
to the woods just back of Allen’s grove.
The first impulsr of the mob, composed
now of about fifty persons, was to hang
him immediately, others proposed a
short trial. They then started back to
town with him, but before they got
half way back they divided, and about
twenty-five of the most unruly returned
with the negro to the grove. Here a
rope was procured and the negro hung
to a tree just back of wilson’s stable.—
He hung there all night, and the next
morning about nine o’clock his body
was taken down by the coroner and
buried.”

The New Loan.
At the last session of Congress,, a
new National loan was authorized by
act ot July 14. 1870, and the Secretary
of the Treasury, in anticipation of early
proposals lor subscription to the new
loan, has issued a circular stating the
terms on which' the b aids will be issued.
He pr p ses to issue :
First—s2oo,ooo,ooo of the 5 per

the Government, ten years after date.

Coosa River Survey. —The Coosa
river survey by the General Govern
ment. under the charge of Col. 11. C.
Pillebrown, is progressing in a very
satisfactory manner. We get the fol
lowing particulars from our young
friend. Hines M. Smith, assistant en
gineer : The survey was commenced at
Wetiunpka, on the 13th of September.
In the first fifteen miles up the river
they find 78 feet fall. They are now
surveying the Stair Case Shoals. It is
thought that probably a canal around
the shoals in that section of the river
thus far surveyed, will be the most fea
sible method of passing them.
The weather has been fine and the
low state of the river has afforded a fine
opportunity for a thorough survey.—
Nearly all of tlu? worst shoals have been
surveyed -and we are eheere with the
hope that good navigation to the Gulf
can be secured at a reasonable cost.

How THE Radical Tariff Robs
the Farmer. —The Democrat, publish
ed in Orleans county, New York, calls
the attention of the people of that sec
tion to a simple fact which very forcibly
illustrates the beauty of protection. It
says the best kind of an iron beam plow
can be bought just across the Niagara
river iu Canada, for 87, while the &une
article costs in Orleans county 814.
1 he purchaser of a seven-dollar plow in
St. Catherines, iu Cana la, has to pay,
when he brings it across the river, a
duty ol 87 upon it. Thus the farmers
of the county pay just twice as much
for their agricultural implements as they
would have to pay just across the river.

The Radicals have carried Ohio by

Sehenek. who was beaten by Jmwis D.

was heavy enough to cover the whole
